Watercolors

At the turn of the year, artist Mariana Nordgren's exhibition about the birds of North Karelia will open in the Ukko gallery of Koli nature center.

The exhibition offers a broad overview of the region's birdlife; from common woodpeckers to declining and rare species, such as the field warbler. The exhibition also contains information about the reasons for the decline of many species.
Nordgren's skillful watercolor paintings are a visually enjoyable way to get to know the birds of the Koli region.
